Understanding the basics and the foundation behind Sharia law is not such a difficult task. Accepting it as a reasonable alternative to democracy is a bit more of a stretch for those who have only experienced democratic systems of crime and punishment.

Even more difficult to accept are the punishments handed out in accordance...

Women's rights in the Middle East have always been a controversial issue. Although the rights of women have changed over the years, they have never really been equal to the rights of a man. This poses a threat on Iran because women have very limited options when it comes to labor, marriage and other aspects of their culture. I believe that equal treatment for women and men is a fundamental principal of international human rights standards. Yet, in some places like Iran, discriminatory practices...

﻿Types of qiyas
a) 'Analogy of the Superior' (qiyas al-awla)
The effective cause in this qiyas is more evident in the new case than the original case, which is why it is called qiyas al-awla.

By analogy it may be deduced that the prohibition against lashing or beating them is even...
